2010 was a great year for graffiti on the Bondi Beach Graffiti Wall – and thanks to Dean at Land of Sunshine, we have 18 images that he took in January 2011 of panels on the wall. We need your help – to identify the artists.
We have worked out two (thanks SG and Silver) – but we need a hand with the remaining 16, so if you know the artist could you message us (and them) with their contact details so that we can properly add these images to the community website.
Cheers

Well it has been a busy year on the Bondi Beach Graffiti Wall – we have had some amazing art created by some incredibly talented artists.
The Instagrammer’s favourite for the 2017 season was clearly Em Carey‘s 2016 – The World in Detail – and whilst not graffiti, it took Emma days to complete and really resonated with the public.
And there was a wide variety of work – from the aerosol work of Gus Eagleton – whose 2017 – Reflections showed an incredible nozzle control:
Simple pieces like Andre Braun – BondiWorld‘s 2016 – Rodin’s Seagull:
And Yipes one MD‘s classic 2016 – Top Cat (see photo at the top of this page).
Here are a couple of videos that I took on Christmas Eve 2017 – and although my videography is amateurish, I hope you see some of your favourites.
Once again, thanks to the artists for brightening up Bondi, to Waverley Council for curating the wall, and to everyone who shared images on Facebook and Instagram. Keep sending them and I’ll keep adding the pages to the website!

And if you haven’t seen 2017 – Clickbait get down to the beach ASAP – you’ve only got seven weeks left til they start painting over this season’s murals!
There’s ice skating, art and entertainment, and for the first time, the Bondi Eye, giving visitors a birds eye view of Bondi Beach from a 32 metre high ferris wheel!
Soaring high above the iconic Bondi Beach, the Bondi Eye will give visitors spectacular 360 degrees views, enjoyed away from the chilly sea breeze in a glass capsule.
Also included in the sparkling Bondi Winter Magic program is a magical blend of art, culture and history with the “On the Streets” series of music and art and a stroll through Bondi’s History with our “Bondi History Walks”.
